Seraphina shifted her wings closer to her back, looking around
as she walked down the empty street. Her wings, usually a mixture of dark brown and dirty blond, were covered in dust and mud. She couldn't wash them herself, she needed someone else to help and ever since she left the flock, she had no one to help clean them. Her flock had kicked her out after she had helped a demon, which was strictly forbidden. She had been on the run ever since then, too scared to show anyone or use her wings. She finally sighed and pulled off her leather jacket, letting her wings stretch out as she walked down the empty road. She smiled slightly and began humming, breaking the deafening silence around her as she thought about where she was going next, her wings stretched out across the road. She continued walking until she saw a bright light and felt the cool metal of a car hit her hip, throwing her off balance and to the concrete as she cried out, landing on her wing and hearing a loud snap. She laid out dazed until she heard a voice above her and a gentle hand nudging her shoulder.

"Are you okay?" Sam's manly yet concerned voice asked the girl lying flat on her back in the middle of the road, her eyelids fluttered in response.
Sam flicked his brown hair out of the way of his left eye. The girl tried to open her mouth to say she was okay, but nothing came out so she just nodded her head slowly. sam slid his long fingers into the girl's jeans trying to find some sort of identification of her. The girl started batting her legs as much as she could frantically. Sam startled, fell on his back. A black impala pulled up next to sam, it's engine rumbling. Sam's older brother dean stepped out of the car with a sarcastic grin on his face. "Trying to get some action with an innocent chick who can't help herself
Sammy?" Sam gave his brother a are you kidding me type of look. "I'm trying to find some kind of ID on her." Sam continued to look finding nothing. Then he turned her on her back, his face turned very surprised. "Dean look. She has wings on her back. What do kind of monster do you think she is?" "I don't know, never seen anything like it." "What do you think we should do with her?" "Well we just can't leave her here." Sam and Dean argued about how to deal with her. Sam won the argument and they ended up taking her back to the bunker of the Men of Letters. There Sam treated her her wounds. He was unsure how to treat her wings though, he made a makeshift slpilt and gently wrapped them up. The girl had been still this whole time. She finally opened her eyes again after sam had finished wrapping her wings. "Who are you?" The girl managed to ask. "I'm sam and this is my brother dean." Sam answered. The girl's eyes widened in surprise. "You two are in danger, you two are the reason i'm here," the girl said before she passed out again. Sam and Dean waited patiently for the girl to wake up. Finally after several hours she wakened to Sam and Dean asleep in the chairs they were sitting in. Seraphina wandered around the bunker, looking in and out of the rooms that were there. She noted that one of the two liked classic rock. Sam and Dean woke to the smell of something wonderful being cooked. As they walked into they saw Seraphina cooking what looked like breakfast. "Whatever it is that you're making smells good." Sam said. "Thanks I wasn't sure if it was time for dinner or breakfast so I made breakfast. Cause who doesn't love breakfast for dinner." Seraphina said with a smile. "Look she even made coffee." Dean said. "If you want, you can sit at the table I have the food almost done." Sam and Dean sat at the table and Seraphina served them. She then took at seat next to Dean. Sam and Dean started eating, about half way through Seraphina said "I want to say thank you to the person who bandage my wings." Sam smiled " it wasn't too hard, I didn't want to hurt you, so I didn't wrap them too tight." "Why are you here? You said we were in danger." Dean said with a puzzling and anger look on his face. "Well I guess to put it simply Randgrid and his armies will be coming after you two. He says he wants your heads served to him on a silver platter." Sam sat with a fearful and shocked look. Dean angrily shouted "Who is this Randgrid bastard, what does he have to do with us." Seraphina sat quietly for a couple of minutes, gathering her thoughts. Finally she said "it all started with your father. John Winchester killed Randgrid father, Ölrún, ever since then Randgrid swore he would get his revenge on John. But since John has now passed away he has decided that you two would work instead." "So your telling me that some asshole we have never met, has a vendetta against us." Dean was getting angier by the second. "Dean calm down." Said Sam. "How the hell do you expect me to calm down." Dean was furious by this point. "Some dickbag we have never met wants us dead, Sam, dead." "Dean I know but we have to think about how to kill him instead of getting angry. So what are you exactly?" Sam asked Seraphina."I'm a valkyrie. We are winged beings sent to help warriors find their way to Valhalla. But Ölrún convinced the other valkyries that we needed to stray from our original paths. He wanted us to kill humans. I wouldn't do it and so I was banished for it. But when I heard of what Randgrid was plotting I knew I had to find you guys no matter what the costs were."
Next, she starts with small talk relating to the size of his arms and working behind the bar. Rebecca is a friend of Diane. Diane request Sam to take it easy with her friend. She asks, Sam to say no to everything Rebecca asked of him, Sam
She went into the lake for a swim and suddenly, a tail appeared where her feet had been. She was terrified, so she made sure that no one was looking and dragged herself onto the dry sand of the shore. As soon as she dried off, her feet reappeared, replacing the tail. She didn’t know what was happening to her, so she ran to the library to do some research. She looked for hours on end and suddenly found a book on mythological creatures. Before she could open it, a “gust” of wind from an open window blew the book open and the first picture she saw was of a Selkie. She recognized the tail immediately, for it was the same tail that she had not long before. She knew she must keep this a secret, for she thought that her parents would not love her anymore. What she did not know, was that they already knew about her
She appeared like an apparition in the mist, walking in the dark. It was after midnight and not a soul could be seen on the desolate street, aside from her. She peered around, breathing heavily, as clouds escaped her mouth in the cool air, like dragon's fiery breath. Up the hill, around the bend and out of the light, the only sound for miles was the rustle of leaves in the breeze, on this dark and eerie night. She crept along, as an owl hooted in the distance, past the rock wall of the abandoned park, a branch snapped somewhere to the right, a fearful journey to embark.
“Where are you going?” The tiny voice beside me was attached to a boy. I wanted him to leave. “Why are you on the wrong side of the road?” I faltered against the wind, pressing my foot hard into the ground, attempting in vain to control my footing. “I can see your wings. Why don’t you fly?”
Sam looked worried as she sat, twiddling with her thumbs. Spencer asked her what was wrong, and Sam answered “I have some bad news to tell you that might ruin your life and reputation if not taken care of soon.” “What could possibly be that bad?” Spencer asked. “Our dear old father has gained parole.” “WHAT?! Why did the authorities not tell me?! “
More and more town's people came to Pelayo's house and Pelayo and Elisenda decided to charge a fee to see the creature.

When the child began school , the angel would go out into the sunlight and regain strength. One day when Elisenda was cutting onions in the kitchen she could see the angel attempting to fly, when in the sky Elisenda watched him go until he was an imaginary dot on the horizon.
Amelia walks into the small, hospital for the creatures in the forest. The loud cries of the creatures echoed through the halls and made her heart churn. She walked into the room where the weeping dragon was being held. She caressed her hand down its face, her eyes began to water as she thought of all of the creatures Margaret had been hurting. She looked out the window everything was bright and colorful, it is summer. The weather is always perfect, the water is always a bright blue. You could see creatures flying in the air, enjoying the breeze. Some were drinking water from the rivers, everything was great. Amelia always loved to watch and care for all the creatures. She has always been a very kind person and had a good heart. As she looked
a soft touch kisses his skin. peaking up from under long lashes, light flooding his gaze. raising a hand to block the overwhelming light from his eyes, harley notices a small white feather. he wondered if angels had made home in their willow tree. looking up to find a white crow perched at the end of the tree 's limb. staring down at him with huge red eyes, so bright he could have sworn he saw the other side in them.
LIng Yue clutched her stomach carefully leaning on the trees as she slowly regenerated. She felt fustrated as her tail curled around her body. Rather it made her reminisce about the one time she forgot to eat for a whole day because she had gotten herself locked up in the library. A glint appeared in her eyes as she heard a rustle from the bushes. Her nose twitched as she raise her face to smell the air. What she didnt notice about herself was the excitemnt she felt for seeing the horned white rabbit in front of her. She readyed herself with her small knife in hand.
Panting, I clung to a single branch, somehow withstanding the winds blown by the giant bird, powerful enough to rival tornadoes, Itsuki tucked in my jacket, held by my free arm. After a while, I managed to slowly, inch-by-inch, foot-by-foot, I squirmed up until the bird was only a few meters away. Moving my precious dog to my back, I murmured, “Hold on, lil’ guy. Don’t fall off, ‘kay?” With that, his paws dug a little more into my back. I took a deep breath, gathering my courage. I waited for the split second between gusts, and made my leap of faith, then quickly snatching a refrigerator-sized feather from the humongous creature’s beautiful, brown plumage. It shone so magnificently in the sunlight… and now I was up against it, it was coarse, yet soft and comforting, I could rest on
She followed me to the back porch and the state Sam was in broke my heart. Sam layed on the ground, He didn't even look up or get excited like he usually did when I enter the room. We sat down next to Sam on the ground. My mind was cloudy and I did not want to think.
The clearing was large and I felt very exposed. Wings flapped overhead. An owl swooped low over the clearing and disappeared into the trees in front of us and the wind picked up slightly. I struggled to keep up with Kenna's long strides, her black hair was flowing freely in the wind. We reached the end of the clearing, the trees looked slightly more friendly on this side.
I could barely see where I was going. I thought I knew this house like the back of my hand, but this hallway felt much longer than usual. I kept running, though, unsure of what was behind me. All I knew was that there was no time to stop and ask questions. The sound of footsteps had been a light, reasonable volume at first, but now they were gradually becoming louder. Therefore, I decided it was time to make a bold move.
It was a gloomy day in Jenna’s eyes. She was laying in her hard cold bed thinking about her life. “What can I do, what can I change” Everyday Jenna lived was long and dark. “Jenna it’s time for dinner” her mother yelled up the stairs. Jenna slowly rolled to the side of her bed, and sat at the edge. Her feet were dangling off the side as her legs swung back and forth. She gently pushes her body off her bed, her feet touched the cold wood floor. Jenna dragged her feet to the door and put her small hand on the handle. As Jenna was opening the door, she felt a cold gust of wind come through the small crack. She instantly got goosebumps. Jenna felt dry, cold hands wrap around her ankles, she quickly grabbed the door handle with both hands. Both
“Alright Max, I’ll see you 3:00 when camp ends!” my mom called as she walked out of Madtown’s lobby. It was there first year of their skateboarding summer camp in the year 2011. Marching towards the park, I immediately noticed how old the other skaters were. I was definitely the youngest one there, considering I didn’t have a scruffy beard. Setting my board to rest on the wall, I strapped on my helmet and started skating. My goal for this week was to perfect my ollie - a fairly simple trick where you pop the tip of your board up, almost like you’re jumping. “Alright Max,” I thought to myself. “It's a simple Ollie, just pop the tip of board - simple!”. Rolling to the vert I exhaled and pushed off with my back foot and dropped in. With the air whizzing past my ear, every little knot in the plywood felt like a speed bump.
